Highlights

Southern Yorke Peninsula is South Australia’s coastal wilderness playground.
Innes National Park and the surrounding area has some of the most spectacular
coastal scenery in the world. It has an abundance of wildlife including Emus,
Kangaroos, Birds, Dolphins and Whales (in winter).


One and a half hours after leaving Adelaide be introduced to the local
Aboriginal traditional owners. Explore their ancient landscapes and listen to
Dreaming stories and share some of their culture. Come fishing, swim in clear
lagoons and try surfing. Walk along deserted beaches with pure white sand and
rolling ocean waves that go on forever! In the evenings enjoy the local
produce and seafood before settling down for the night in our comfortable
coastal accommodation.


You will even be able to try some excellent local wines, with a visit to
Barley Stacks Winery.


This is the Yorke Peninsula Tour that has it all! Aboriginal Culture,
Wildlife, Beaches, Rugged Cliffs and Coastline, Fishing, Surfing, Spectacular
Scenery and even a visit to a local winery.


This tour is great in both summer and winter, with sunny beaches and swimming
in the warmer months and amazing rugged coasts, big waves and whale watching
in the cooler months.


DAY 1


Departing Adelaide, you will be introduced to the Aboriginal history and
European settlement of this beautiful city. Heading north along the eastern
side of Gulf St Vincent, you will be entertained with stories about our early
explorers.


We will pass the Hummocks, ancient remains of a great mountain range that once
dominated the outback.


Travelling down the Gulf you will find incredible diversity; from coastal
mangroves to one of the richest farming areas in Australia.


Coffee break is at the Ardrossan Country Bakery, famous for its delicious
homemade goodies.


Walk to Ochre Cliffs and discover coloured clays that have been used in
Aboriginal ceremonies for thousands of years. You will be shown things that
not many people even know about, including an ancient man-made fish trap made
of heavy rocks that the Adjahdura people used for thousands of years.


Head south down the eastern side of Yorke Peninsula, through one of the best
barley growing areas in the world, an essential component of our outstanding
local beers. Enjoy a picnic lunch on the cliffs near Troubridge Point before
making our way to the clear blue waters of Spencer Gulf.


Explore beautiful coastal tracks and small fishing villages before leaving our
bags at our overnight accommodation. Here we find some of the world’s most
spectacular coastal scenery. White, sandy beaches that seem to go on forever,
rolling surf where pods of dolphins frolic and rugged cliffs of unspoiled
beauty in a pristine environment. Kick back and relax with a wholesome home-
cooked meal.


Overnight: Holiday Home: The Pines/Caravan Park: Corny Point.

(L) Included: Picnic Lunch

DAY 2


A full day exploring beautiful Innes National Park and the spectacular, wild
coastline of Southern Yorke Peninsula. Soaring cliffs and magnificent views
over Kangaroo Island; this is a photographers dream! Walk, swim, explore
pristine beaches. Come face-to-face with the abundant wildlife.


Explore the ruins of Inneston, an abandoned gypsum town along the Inneston
Historic Walk. Home to around 200 people, Inneston was completely self-
sufficient, having its own school, post office, bakery and general store. Over
26 shipwrecks lie off this coast. An interpretive maritime trail along the
coastline recounts tales of tragedy, bravery and the final agonizing moments
before these ships sank beneath the waves. Visit the rusted relic of the
park’s most famous wreck, ‘The Ethel’, that sank in 1904 when it ran aground
near the beach during a severe storm.


Take a short walk to the operating lighthouses at Cape Spencer and West Cape.
On the horizon is another lighthouse on Althorpe Island Conservation Park.
These not only provide safe passage for vessels today, but offer an insight
into the area’s maritime heritage.


At the end of the day capture a magical South Aussie sunset over the ocean.


Overnight: Holiday Home: The Pines/Caravan Park: Corny Point.

DAY 3


Stroll the spectacular coastline of Spencer Gulf, look for dolphins in the

Whiting. Southern Right Whales visit in winter and can be seen from a number
of vantage points.


On our way home we visit the Barley Stacks Winery to enjoy the local drop.
Established in 1996, this winery is the first commercial vineyard/winery
